Problem statement : the sustainability of agricultural systems has become a major focus for debates about future human survival.

Much of the argument appears to rely on simplistic interpretation of ecological models, and fails adequately to define what sustainability objectives are being sought.

Studies show that no effective measures have been taken towards sustainable agriculture in Iran.

Social, economic and technical agricultural factors and conditions need to be provided to meet sustainable agriculture at the farm, regional and national level.

Accordingly, this research aimed at exploring some solutions to protect and conserve agriculture.

Approach : to achieve this, of all 100 populations, included both 93 faculty members of college of agriculture at Bu-Ali-Sina University and 20 subject matter specialists in Hamedan's State Agricultural Organization, 35 people were selected based on the criterion type of purposeful sampling.

Data were gathered through interviews.

Content analysis method was used to analyze textual data.

Results : results of this study showed that the building awareness and culture along with factors such as proper sustainable agriculture practices, effective planning and management and attention to agro-ecological issues are basic factors to promote Sustainable development of agriculture in the surveyed area.

Conclusions : lack of awareness and knowledge of farmers and people towards sustainable agriculture, no adoption of sustainable agriculture by farmers and lack of education and training services for sustainable agriculture were the most important issues that found in this research about sustainable agriculture.

Therefore, support the creating of cooperatives to provide necessary services for implementing sustainable agriculture practices is definitely recommended.

Key words : sustainable development, agricultural Systems, farmers, extension services, Hamedan province of Iran, Pesticides, cooperatives, conventional rotations, Farmer Field Schools (FFS).
